Yes those memories are inside. I think more of hurt then good. Some good including gardening with dad, chopping down coconut trees , playing badminton and other.while bad memories are there also like failures, boring youth lifes , wasted opportunities and also injuries and such.Also some family politics and also long period of loneliness as child and wasted youth.

I remember many of my experiences as a child. Its what makes contemplation of my life pleasurable. I have also had the same experiences with family members telling me i was too young to remember. Goes to show how little people regard us when we're young. What is interesting is that we tend to remember those things that were pleasant and tend to supress memories of bad experiences. Children will always remember the times when love towards them or towards others was expressed.

Hi, My childhood is the best time I ever have in my life. I have a great parents and siblings at my side and we have a very close relationship with each other. I am the youngest in the family,so my parents pampered me alot.They give me the best and I am so happy to be part of their family member. When I was a child, I used to play with my sister and brothers. I used to quarrel with my sister while playing,sometimes, when I couldn't get the thing I want,then I will pull her hair and then we will start screaming and pulling each other hairs. When I think about it, I will laugh at myself and why I am so naughty. Sometimes, I would even joined my brothers' gang play with all boys together,we play marbles...so fun! That is the greatest moments in my childhood and I definitely miss that special moments. When I meet up with my siblings and we talked about our childhood, we laughed at each other,...how playful we are when we were young. Now , we all have grown up and have own family. So now is our time to bring up our kid and takecare of our own family.

oh! I really have fun reading the memories on the responses in this interest. It made me smile and think of my childhood memories too. I couldn't easily forget my childish memories because my friends back then were 5 years older than me so as I grew up with them. I always hear different stories about my being "matured-thinker". I don't know but I always got this compliment to them even now . I go to kindergarten with my older cousins because I'd like to see a teacher writing stars in my workbook. Of course not so good as a 5 years old. But it made me smile and proud of.

Huffhhh its very difficult for me to remember my childhood days but when i ask my mom and dad then they use to tell about me. When i am child i use to cry more and i use to eat more and more fruits and chats and snacks. I was so fat but now i am slim guy. I won't believe when i see my childhood photos. But its very nice to listen from my mom and dad about me when i am a child.

I had a wonderful childhood. I remember the love from my grandparents. My summer with childhood friends and family also. Moreover, I remember a field of the Lily of the Valley flowers next to my grandparents home. The beauty and the fragrance from the flowers has stayed in my mind, heart and soul for all my life. The same for my grandparents :) I planted some Lily of the Valley flowers in my backyard. The bloom very May, but they do not stay long!

I can not remember my memories when I was a child, too. I very like to know about them. But I can not. I think that when I have had a child, I will try to keep images of him/her by camera or movie camera. Technology is useful! :)

I have lots of memories from my childhood. Spending time with my siblings; our secret clubhouse, Christmas mornings and Sunday mornings when my mom would make a big breakfast for all us kids and dad. I remember getting my cat Squeaky when I turned 12 and she was a cute white kitten with a grey spot on her head. I remember having other cats and they got hit by a car. My sister went down a hill on the sled after being told not to and she hit the parked car and sprained her neck. We had to call an ambulance. We used to go berry picking then we would go out for ice cream afterwards.I ate most of my berries.

As a child, you cant remember everything.. Although I can remember the memories that scared me as a child.. like somebody in my family going through addiction and my mom not being able to pay the bills.. Im just happy those days are over. Someday Ill owe my family the love and everything theyve given me. I cant remember much of the happy times, except spending time with my family.

My best memories would have to be was when my parents and I visited Laos. Laos is located in Asia and that was where me, my sister, my bother, and everyone else in my family were born. Its one of my best memories cause I can still remember the smiles on my parents faces when we were there. Most of the times we were there they were both smiling cause it was their dream to visit Laos again, It was like a Dream came true for them. In the future I plan to take them back.

I won't forget my childhood. My parents won't allow us playing in streets because we might be hit with a car. But of course, I would do anything to scape from them and play with our neighbors. I find it fun to reminisce those things. Now that i've grown up, some people would say, "wow you've grown so fast! not so long, you were so small.." well. ehhehe. be blessed! :)

Hi mylotters I don't know when and where but the only thing that left from my memories since baby is when my mom always wanted me to stay beside her and given extra time to spend for here self alone. then she ask me to get something she needed but she cant find it that the but as a child they have something to overcome with so its much better that parents say something about kids journey.

It is amazing how the simple things can mean the most to children. My childhood glimmers with memories of bubble wrap, playing under the sprinklers, visits to grandma's house and a solitary teddy bear named Ned. In the days before ipods, before computers were a necessity, there existed a world where every day was an adventure and the aim was to explore as much as possible as quickly as possible. I, along with my older sister and younger brother lived in this world of imagination as children. To us, our house represented the whole world. Good day to everyone!

Yeah,Memories are important to everyone;They help with balance and stability and our sense of self.I remember what I did when I was are firstly I always run out of house and go at friends friend to play and we play by making houses and we play in role as a father and mother and made baby as like that we played and sometime we go to river side and became a fishery man out there and sometime go theft the cucumber and other fruits in other houses.When I was in standard 1 I run over class and go out without permission to look the person who is coming over the school and I came back within a minute and my class teacher scold me because I don't that we have ask permission and go out.We use fight with friends very badly.when I was child I am very short temper and also stupid.While in winter vacation I use to go for collection of grass for my cow by requesting but I never use to cut grass I go just for play with friends.
